Safety Information

These instructions contain important operating and safety
information. The user must carefully read and understand
these instructions before using the water bath.
Your unit has been designed to optimize function, reliability,
safety, and ease of use. It is the userʼs responsibility to install
the bath in conformance with local electrical codes.
To avoid electrical shock, always:
Connect the water bath to a properly grounded elec-
trical outlet of the correct voltage and current han-
dling capacity. Check the nameplate on the back of
the unit for the voltage and current rating.
Disconnect the unit from the power outlet prior to
maintenance and servicing. Note: 230V units are
double pole, neutral fusing.
To avoid personal injury:
Do not use in the presence of flammable or com-
bustible materials; fire or explosion may result. This
device contains components which may ignite such
materials.
Do not remove or modify the grounded power plug.
Use only properly grounded outlets to avoid a shock
hazard. This unit is not rated for use in hazardous
atmospheres.
Do not continue to operate the bath if the tempera-
ture control fails (displays an "E" code or controls
erratically) or the backup control fails (red safety
light glows continuously when turned completely
clockwise or fails to light when turned completely
counterclockwise).
Select a fluid that is not corrosive and is not flamma-
ble. The following fluids are not recommended and
may damage the unit:
- Chlorides or bleach.
- Strong concentrations of any acid.
- Strong concentrations of any salt.
- Weak concentrations of hydrochloric acid, hydroflu-
oric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, sulfuric
acid, or chromic acid.
